TWINS!!!

Sometimes, i can lose weight fairly easily, by exactly the same method -
cut out the unneccessary calories like sugar in my drinks and coffee,
biscuits and chocolate bars during the day, butter in my sandwiches, etc.
Then i get to a point where that doesn't work, and i switch to salads for
dinner. Then i get to a point where that doesn't work either, and i still
have a little pot belly.

I probably don't do enough cardio, though.

You got me interested, so i looked it up:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coral_Calcium

It's made from fossilised coral deposits, which basically means limestone.
I can't see any reason to think it'd be superior to calcium carbonate from
any other source.
